I see. Provided there is somebody willing to work on this, it might be
interesting to reproduce it.

That should not be a problem, unless the to-be-merged changes directly
conflict. Just svn-update, then try committing again.

It's actually also possible to recover from overlapping merges also:
just re-run svnmerge with --record-only (-M); this assumes nobody else
has merged the very same changes concurrently.
